One of the bigger things was about the double shipping:
CEBULSKI
Steve is the editor. So Steve made the choice to go with Khoi Pham. And said he was going to work with Khoi to open up his style, make it a little looser. Tom Palmer’s going to ink it, make it a little more open. So in that regard, the couple pages I’ve seen, Khoi has adapted his style to something more like that.
BUTCHER
To fit this kind of book.
CEBULSKI
But, that said, Koi’s only going to be on for one issue.
BUTCHER
He’s doing 10.1 and 12 and 15.
CEBULSKI
He’s solicited for that. Chris Samnee’s going to be coming on and taking over sooner. Him and Paolo will be the two regular artist’s on the book for the rest of the year.
BUTCHER
So that’s a commercial decision that Marvel’s making, to print Daredevil 20 times a year because Daredevil’s one of their best-selling books.
MINTZ
But another way you do that is you say, why don’t we have five Daredevil books. They can all come out monthly. What’s behind that choice?
CEBULSKI
We found, and part of the reason for this increased shipping, is that, there’s a larger growing disparity between best-sellers and mid-sellers and low-sellers. There’s good sellers and medium sellers but the lower sellers are selling lower, lower and dropping. And those were always miniseries or one-offs or things that don’t count. And what we’re finding now is that fans want things that are part of the continuity. They only want the main titles. They want Amazing Spider-Man, they don’t want Avenging Spider-Man.
AGG
What’s the difference?
CEBULSKI
There’s the core title, the actual title, and then the spin-off. So normally when a title hit big, to make more money off those characters, you publish a second title that’s not the main title but it’s a secondary run.
MINTZ
That seems like a shell game almost.
CEBULSKI
Yes. And in a way it is.
I think Marvel have self-inflicted that on themselves, by making ASM go to three times a month and shrinking the potential readership with Brand New Day's scheduling. When you direct the readers to only care about certain titles, you can't be surprised when they won't try anything that Marvel has shown, directly or indirectly, to not be as integral to the main story. This makes me wonder if there will be any noticeable jump in sales to Thunderbolts when it becomes Dark Avengers.

But you ... You're just a bad person. :P
But I can link to this again. http://twitpic.com/532209
Was that the one where George Carlin played Mr. Conductor?
Anyway, all you need to know is that a Midwest farmboy finds a jetpack and fights Nazis.
Sometimes it was ringo....
And now, I feel really god damn old, Thanks Ari! rofl
It was Ringo! But actually my best memories are of George Carlin. No wonder my dad liked watching it with me, he was a big fan.
That and a Canadian Aboriginal actor as the generic Magical Indian. Whee.
I remember that!
Jason Woliner was also apparently on that show with Ringo. And left with Ringo.
Jason Woliner is a pretty funny dude.
But infancy is no excuse for not being familiar with The Rocketeer.
and I dunno why everyone loves him so. He just seems like a dude in period dress with a jetpack.
But hey, Waid and Samnee
These two things may just possibly be connected.

and I am not really a fan of movies from back then
it seems like people who love films like stuff from that time and I do not
...
the movie is from the 90s and was directed by the captain america director
no
I mean 40s as in it is a campy fun WWII era adventure ala Indiana Jones/Captain America
especially the latter since it is the same director
hey blank
type faster
I see
well I might watch it
maybe
if I can be bothered
now this
this is an incentive
especially if it's 90's Jennifer Connelly

Samnee is an art god
he rules
He's done a good job of adjusting / mimicking Rivera judging from the preview pages http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=preview&id=11642
"Ride or Die" confirmed Dominic Toretto, as they took off to find the Dragon Balls in hopes of reviving their friend Sonic
from what I remembered seeing of him before it was really scratchy and rough and just not fun
dude has a very strong command of his lines and shadows
maybe you're mixing him up with someone?
SO MUCH
Tumblr Twitter
Very possibly!
Skottie Young
I want him to do something more than Oz comics. Dude is awesome, maybe my favorite guy working today but I wish he'd do some more mainstream work.
If Runaways ever gets another go, I'd love to see him on it alongside a decent writer.
